Item 8.01. Other Events.

Within the past 36 hours, SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“Company”) detected suspicious activity affecting several servers within certain data centers. The Company, as part of its comprehensive response plan, immediately took steps to identify and contain the situation. At this time, the Company is not aware of evidence that any customer, supplier, or employee data has been improperly misused or transferred by any third party. The Company is working to get the affected servers back online and has engaged a third-party consultant to assist. Restoration of some systems will take time and, in the interim, certain transactions with customers or suppliers may be delayed. The Company appreciates the understanding of its customers and suppliers during this time.
